Kamala Harris is smashing fundraising records as the Democratic Party’s donors — big and small — open their wallets for the vice president in the immediate aftermath of President Joe Biden's stunning decision to step aside.

The highest 24-hour fundraising total, surpassing Trump’s post-conviction and (likely, given that they refuse to disclose it) post-assassination totals.

888,000 small donors, 500,000 of whom were first-time donors for this campaign cycle.

That’s the engagement and energy we should have been having this whole time. That’s the kind of engagement and energy that landslides Trump.

    This is absolutely true. We ran into a friend back into the day who said she was canvassing for Bernie…why don’t we also go?

    We nwver even thought about volunteering for a political campaign, yet we did.
